I was doing a little searching online and came across this, the most hilarious article ever. I love how, because I became a member of theknot.com to search for some vendors in my area, they chose to start sending me emails from their sister site, thenest.com, literally the day after the wedding!!
Thad and I had [...]

Wow, it’s been a long, long time since I’ve posted here! Most of my spare time has been taken up with wedding stuff for the past several months. Some of it has been wonderfully fun (like scoping out different venues, and cake tasting – yum!), but some of it has been incredibly tedious.
Don’t get me [...]

Yes, I know I haven’t posted in ages, but I have a semi good excuse – planning a wedding in four months is a tough job! But, I’m getting ahead of myself, and leaving out all the juicy details…..
Last month I went to England to visit Thad, along with his mom, Maxine. We had a [...]
Waxing Political

In 2004, just a few days before the presidential election, I attended a political rally in Raleigh, NC where John Edwards, the then-hopeful future vice-president, spoke. That night I felt optimistic, inspired, and excited about America’s political future. I remember shedding tears in my office while reading Kerry’s concession speech just a few days later.

This year, Thad and I received a wonderful present from his mom, Maxine, and David: a seven-day cruise to the Caribbean! It was a bit of a whirlwind at first, since we flew into the States on December 14th, drove to Charleston on the 15th, and the cruise left [...]

Yes, I know it’s been ages since I posted anything on here, but trust me, I have a good excuse. Just after getting settled in Oxford I began my internship with Plan UK, and began working at Starbucks, and live has been pretty hectic ever since! I had one week where I didn’t have a [...]
The Thrilling Bungee Trampoline!

Now, that is what I want to do when I finish this freaking paper. A fiver well-spent, I think.
Progress today has been slow. Super slow. But, I’m trying to be optimistic by thinking that the night is young……
The other night while walking around (yes I actually left – not only the flat [...]
Calling all He-man Fans

Yes, I know. Two posts in one day while working on my dissertation? For shame…..
I blame this one on Alvaro. But, if you’re like me and have fond memories of watching He-man every day after coming home from kindergarten (plus, have a fondness for Queen), you’ll love this video. It’s worth watching until [...]
